For founders, developers, agencies and companies with software they no longer use

Old Code Lying Around?
It Can Still Pay You.

Odys AI Labs trains AI models on real-world software. We buy the source code of old ventures, side businesses, sunset products and shut-down apps, for cash. Closed years ago, never launched, sitting in an old repo: if your team wrote it, it can be worth real money.

Takes less than 60 seconds. No obligation. No code changes hands before a signed agreement.

Dead product, live asset

The product stopped. The code kept its value.

AI models learn to write software from real codebases, and most public code has already been used. Private code built by real teams to solve real problems is now in short supply, and it's exactly what our R&D runs on. Leave yours in an old repo and it's worth nothing. Sell it to us and it pays you.

What we buy

The code, and everything your team built around it.

The more of the real work you still have, the more it's worth. How the code changed, why decisions were made and how it was tested all count.

01 · Source code

The full codebase

Web apps, mobile apps, SaaS platforms, backends, APIs, games and internal tools.

02 · Git history

Commits and reviews

Branches, pull requests and code reviews. Years of history add real value.

03 · Docs & tests

Specs, docs and test suites

READMEs, architecture notes, API docs and the tests that kept it working.

04 · Tickets

Issue and task history

Exports from Jira, Linear or GitHub Issues: the bugs, features and decisions behind the code, cleaned of personal data.

05 · Design & processes

Designs and documented workflows

Design files, runbooks, SOPs and written processes for how the product was built and run.

Simple, safe, final

One cash price. Zero risk to your secrets.

Cash

One agreed price, paid when the code is transferred. No earn-outs, no waiting.

0 lines

of code shared before you sign. Your offer is based on what you tell us about the codebase.

0 secrets

leave with the code. API keys, passwords and customer data are removed before transfer.

Your code goes into AI training and R&D at Odys AI Labs, after cleaning. We never use your brand or relaunch your product under your name.

Does my code qualify?

We buy dead software, not running businesses.

We buy

Code that was a real product

  • From an old venture, side business, startup or a product your company retired
  • Shut down, abandoned, obsolete or never launched
  • Makes no money today (online or offline, both fine)
  • Original code written by your own team
  • A complete product, not snippets or experiments
  • You own the rights, or can sign for the company that does
  • Bonus: git history, docs, tests and tickets
We pass on

Code that isn't yours to sell, or isn't really code

  • Software that is still making money
  • Client work you don't hold the rights to
  • Open-source forks, templates and tutorial projects
  • Repos that are mostly copied libraries or generated code
  • Databases, user records or chat logs

How it works

From old repo to cash, in four steps.

01

Tell us about it

60 seconds. What it was, how big it is, what you still have. No code needed.

02

We review the basics

Size, languages, history and ownership, on a short call with our team.

03

You get a cash offer

One clear price. No obligation to accept.

04

Sign, clean, get paid

Written agreement first. Secrets and personal data removed. Then transfer and payment.

If your code doesn't qualify, we tell you why, straight away.

Questions

Before you send your details

How much will you pay for my code?+

It depends on how much original code there is, the languages, the quality, and how much history, documentation and tests come with it. We review the details and make a concrete cash offer. No obligation to accept.

It wasn't a startup, just an old project. Does it count?+

Yes. Side businesses, agency products, apps you built and stopped running, tools your company retired: if it was a real product, your team wrote it and you own it, send it in.

Who is buying my code?+

Odys AI Labs, the research and development arm of Odys. You deal with us directly: we make the offer, sign the agreement and pay you. No brokers, no marketplace, no waiting for a third party to say yes.

What will you do with my code?+

It goes into AI training and R&D at Odys AI Labs: teaching models to read, write and fix real software. We may also work on it with research partners. Before any of that, it is cleaned of anything sensitive. We don't use your brand or your name, and we don't relaunch your product as yours.

Do I have to send my code to get an offer?+

No. Your offer is based on what you tell us: what the product did, its size, its languages and what else you have. Code only moves after a written agreement is signed. We will never ask you to install or run anything on your computer.

What about passwords, API keys and customer data?+

They are removed before transfer, and we help you do it. We buy code and the work around it. We never take databases, user records or customer information.

The product is dead and the servers are gone. Does it still qualify?+

Yes, as long as you still have the code: on GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, a backup drive or an old laptop. The product does not need to run today.

The company was dissolved, or I had co-founders. Can I still sell?+

Usually, yes. Whoever owns the rights to the code must sign, so co-founders or investors with a say may need to agree. If a liquidator handles the company's assets, we can work with them directly.

Is this confidential?+

Completely. We don't publish who we buy from, and everything you share stays between you and our team.
